Despite the au courant reference to the global pandemic, this seems very familiar (particularly the bits about Wintour, Gladwell, & Ramsay), but I can't recall where I read it (sometime 5-10 years ago, maybe), and a cursory google search doesn't pull up anything.

Still, the deja vu was pretty darn strong. Perhaps the writer had a blog that has since been deleted, and she recycled an old post.

Hmmm... this has me wondering. I've been writing about teaching and learning for a while (my dissertation and book were on the topic in the early Middle Ages). MasterClass has only been around for five years though, and the Wintour course came online last year. It's possible there were review pieces out. I did do a bunch of searching on MasterClass last year, because I was tempted by it but found it a bit pricey and wanted to know if there was any substance to the courses. Most of what I found were very brief reviews though.
